Re: kppp leaks?

I have experienced what appear to be severe memory leaks from kppp in 
RH9. I initially ran Gnome as my desktop, and was not able to leave 
kppp running for very long before it was using 50M or more of memory. I 
had 5 hour session limits with my ISP - I now have 4 hour limits, so I 
would leave kppp running and simply re-connect as required.

After switching to KDE, the situation seemed to improve, but there is 
still leakage, and kppp is a memory hog anyway. When I do a top sorting 
by memory usage, kppp starts near the top of the list. This seems 
ridiculous. 

 

What experiences do others have with kppp? Is there any 
equally convenient alternative?

 

I've had a worse experience with kppp.  Im not able to connect to the internet through kppp.  After authentication, kppp gives an error saying: "pppd timedout" error code 10 ( unable to establish connection ).  Im yet to find a soln to this.  tell if u know.
